stopped by my local pawn shop and they had 3 more they set aside for me and I said what the heck
#1 remington 700  30-06 with scope $250
#2 remington 700 7mm mag with a simmons 6x18 scope $220
#3 remington 7400  30-06 with scope nice (but needs a mag) $200
thought that those were decent prices and they are going to be putting out a bunch more on monday they said so will go by at lunch before they go out. dang that makes 9 from them in the last 3 weeks. I think they like me.
was told they have had the next bunch either on layaway or pawn from this one guy for 4-5 years and that usually means some nice rilfes and maybe some evil black one's as that was before they stopped taking that type. ye ha

You are hopeless, man.  With prices like those I would take them all too.  

Damn!  Move over, dude, I am moving to Colorado!  Congrats on the great scores.  

think I might keep one of them for this up coming hunting season.
it will either be the auto or the 7 mm mag. will shoot both of them and see how they do. and which ever I end up keeping most likely I will put the 6x18 scope on it to hunt with . but will see what else comes up later as I might find something else I like better.
thanks guys as I do thing anythink like those under $250 is pretty good
